I'll put this up to keep track of my experience with these tires. Before I purchased I couldn't really find any info, other than people asking about them, and other people telling them to make America great again and pay alot more for tires.

I bought mine from Parishtirecompany on Ebay, it was 689 for all four shipped, they are 285/75r16's, load range E. They also all have 3 ply sidewalls.

I had them mounted and balanced at Belle Tire, and the process went smoothly. The guy's didn't complain about anything but my cracked wheels, and I don't see forty nine weights on any of them, so I'm going to guess they balance well.

They went on at 200,154 miles. I have about 300 miles on them now. They ride smoothly, they howl a faint bit, doesn't bother me. My GF can't hear it at all over everything else going on lol.

They don't squirm on corner's or when braking. Today I drove through a sleet storm, (it's 36 degrees outside today), they handled just fine.

I haven't had them offroad yet, but I expect the treat to work well, I'll give them a shot this weekend probably.

They do run full size, even with Pigpen sitting on them, they are a little over 33" high, some 35's only measure that tall lol.

I will keep this post updated if they fly apart, explode, or wear to nothing in 10,000 miles.

When I worked at a tire shop I sold a good amount of Greenball tires. I liked the look of em and compared to Goodyear MTR's or BFG KO2 they balanced wonderfully. I thought they were all made in China though

I have no idea where they are made, probably not here, like most tires now. The most recent info I've been able to find show only Cooper and Goodyear having factories in America, which don't produce all of their tires.

Michelins are made in America and some Pirelli's are too. BFG makes some here too I think. I wish they made trail hogs in 285's. I like the mud hogs but the trail hogs are a little less aggressive

I would have gotten Trail Hog's if they made them in this size, I nearly got them anyway. I don't mind an aggressive tire, and prefer it actually. But Trail Hog's aren't a sissy tread either.

Today I checked them for inflation , they seem happy at 40 psi, then I went and drove around down by the river. Nothing hard core or anything, but about as rough as this truck is likely to see towing and hauling.

The tires cleared out well, threw a ton of poo everywhere, and easily pulled Pigpen all around the field, trail, fairground , etc. All in 2wd at 40 psi.

I have 375 miles on them now.

looks like ill be buying these


I have a touch over 2k on mine, no complaints, no odd wear or cupping or anything. They are a bit heavy, but, 3 ply sidewalls, so not surprising.

They handle well in every condition I've encountered so far, rain, sleet, mud. In loose dirt/sand they dig to China.

right on i have always been kinda skeptical on new tire companys but you seem to be spreading the good word on them! got to get rid of the bald ass ko2's on my single cab! once the new motor goes in a course.
